Yeah I agree, wired is always better than wifi for gaming.
Not many people will recommend wifi for gaming.

Wouldn't recommend it but its still possible. As long as you don't have one of them tiny USB receiver things (like my friend had) and a decent PCI card it should work fine.
As Bledd usually says "Cable all the way!"

Also have this card, although I've had a few driver issues, its perfectly fine gaming, pings around 10ms, download speeds at 21mb/s (200mb connection)
FYI as I stated using Asus PCE-AC68 PCI-Express card, drivers were flawless install for me.
Btw for last two decades been on wired but with my TP Link VR900 modem/router now two floors down on master socket was more practical to go wireless for gaming.
To be honest no real difference for me between wired and wireless, ie no drop outs or issues with speed/ping.
Wired can be impractical if you are like me two floors up from the master socket/router.
Wireless has improved a lot IMHO.
Also official Win10 x64 bit drivers at Asus website for this device as well.

With any new wifi card you choose check the win10 driver compatibility and feedback, some OEM's have had issues getting stable drivers out the door. Wireless will add latency, depending on the game that may not be detectable, but i'd still wherever possible lay cable.
